dismissed L-1A Case: Watch Wholesale
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director concluded, and the AAO agreed, that given the small staffing of the U.S. office (the beneficiary and one sales representative), the beneficiary's role would not be primarily managerial or executive as required.
